31 This document describes an RTP payload format for transporting Vorbis encoded audio. It details the RTP encapsulation mechanism for raw Vorbis data and details the delivery mechanisms for the decoder probability model, referred to as a codebook and other setup information.
35 Also included within the document are the necessary details for the use of Vorbis with MIME and Session Description Protocol (SDP).

50 <section anchor="Introduction" title="Introduction">
53 Vorbis is a general purpose perceptual audio codec intended to allow
54 maximum encoder flexibility, thus allowing it to scale competitively
55 over an exceptionally wide range of bitrates. At the high
56 quality/bitrate end of the scale (CD or DAT rate stereo, 16/24 bits), it
57 is in the same league as MPEG-2 and MPC.
58 Similarly, the version 1.1 reference encoder can encode high-quality CD
59 and DAT rate stereo at below 48k bits/sec without resampling to a lower
60 rate. Vorbis is also intended for lower and higher sample rates (from
61 8kHz telephony to 192kHz digital masters) and a range of channel
62 representations (monaural, polyphonic, stereo, quadraphonic, 5.1,
63 ambisonic, or up to 255 discrete channels).
67 Vorbis encoded audio is generally encapsulated within an Ogg format bitstream <xref target="rfc3533"></xref>, which provides
68 framing and synchronization. For the purposes of RTP transport, this layer is unnecessary, and so raw Vorbis packets are used
72 <section anchor="Terminology" title="Terminology">
75 The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL"
76 in this document are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119 <xref target="rfc2119"></xref>.
82 <section anchor="Payload Format" title="Payload Format">
85 For RTP based transport of Vorbis encoded audio the standard RTP header is followed by a 4 octets payload header, then the payload data. The payload headers are used to associate the Vorbis data with its associated decoding codebooks as well as indicating if the following packet contains fragmented Vorbis data and/or the number of whole Vorbis data frames. The payload data contains the raw Vorbis bitstream information.
88 <section anchor="RTP Header" title="RTP Header">
91 The format of the RTP header is specified in <xref target="rfc3550"></xref> and shown in Figure <xref target="RTP Header Figure"/>. This payload format uses the fields of the header in a manner consistent with that specification.

114 The RTP header begins with an octet of fields (V, P, X, and CC) to support specialized RTP uses (see <xref target="rfc3550">
115 </xref> and <xref target="rfc3551"></xref> for details). For Vorbis RTP, the following values are used.
119 Version (V): 2 bits</t>
121 This field identifies the version of RTP. The version used by this specification is two (2).
125 Padding (P): 1 bit</t>
127 Padding MAY be used with this payload format according to section 5.1 of <xref target="rfc3550"></xref>.
131 Extension (X): 1 bit</t>
133 The Extension bit is used in accordance with <xref target="rfc3550"></xref>.
137 CSRC count (CC): 4 bits</t>
139 The CSRC count is used in accordance with <xref target="rfc3550"></xref>.
143 Marker (M): 1 bit</t>
145 Set to zero. Audio silence suppression not used. This conforms to section 4.1 of <xref target="vorbis-spec-ref"></xref>.
149 Payload Type (PT): 7 bits</t>
151 An RTP profile for a class of applications is expected to assign a payload type for this format, or a dynamically allocated
152 payload type SHOULD be chosen which designates the payload as Vorbis.
156 Sequence number: 16 bits</t>
158 The sequence number increments by one for each RTP data packet sent, and may be used by the receiver to detect packet loss and
159 to restore packet sequence. This field is detailed further in <xref target="rfc3550"></xref>.
163 Timestamp: 32 bits</t>
165 A timestamp representing the sampling time of the first sample of the first Vorbis packet in the RTP packet. The clock frequency
166 MUST be set to the sample rate of the encoded audio data and is conveyed out-of-band as a SDP parameter.
170 SSRC/CSRC identifiers: </t>

230 The last 4 bits represent the number of complete packets in this payload. This provides for a maximum number of 15 Vorbis packets in the payload. If the packet contains fragmented data the number of packets MUST be set to 0.
235 <section anchor="Payload Data" title="Payload Data">
238 Raw Vorbis packets are currently unbounded in length, application profiles will likely define a practical limit. Typical Vorbis packet sizes range from very small (2-3 bytes) to quite large (8-12 kilobytes). The reference implementation <xref target="libvorbis"></xref> typically produces packets less than ~800 bytes, except for the setup header packets which are ~4-12 kilobytes. Within an RTP context, to avoid fragmentation, the Vorbis data packet size SHOULD be kept sufficiently small so that after adding the the RTP and payload headers, the complete RTP packet is smaller than the path MTU.

252 Each Vorbis payload packet starts with a two octet length header, which is used to represent the size of the following data payload, followed by the raw Vorbis data padded to the nearest byte boundary.
256 For payloads which consist of multiple Vorbis packets the payload data consists of the packet length followed by the packet data for each of the Vorbis packets in the payload.
260 The Vorbis packet length header is the length of the Vorbis data block only and does not count the length field.
264 The payload packing of the Vorbis data packets MUST follow the guidelines set-out in <xref target="rfc3551"></xref> where the oldest packet occurs immediately after the RTP packet header. Subsequent packets, if any, MUST follow in temporal order.
268 Channel mapping of the audio is in accordance with the <xref target="vorbis-spec-ref">Vorbis I Specification</xref>.

323 The payload data section of the RTP packet begins with the 24 bit Ident field followed by the one octet bitfield header, which has the number of Vorbis frames set to 2. Each of the Vorbis data frames is prefixed by the two octets length field. The Packet Type and Fragment Type are set to 0. The Configuration that will be used to decode the packets is the one indexed by the ident value.
331 <section anchor="Configuration Headers" title="Configuration Headers">
334 Unlike other mainstream audio codecs Vorbis has no statically
335 configured probability model. Instead, it packs all entropy decoding
336 configuration, VQ and Huffman models into a data block that must be
337 transmitted to the decoder along with the compressed data. A decoder
338 also requires information detailing the number of audio
339 channels, bitrates and similar information to configure itself for a
340 particular compressed data stream. These two blocks of information are
341 often referred to collectively as the "codebooks" for a Vorbis stream,
342 and are nominally included as special "header" packets at the start
343 of the compressed data. In addition,
344 the <xref target="vorbis-spec-ref">Vorbis I specification</xref>
345 requires the presence of a comment header packet which gives simple
346 metadata about the stream, but this information is not required for
347 decoding the frame sequence.
351 Thus these two codebook header packets must be received by the decoder
352 before any audio data can be interpreted.
353 These requirements pose problems in RTP,
354 which is often used over unreliable transports.
358 Since this information must be transmitted reliably and, as the RTP
359 stream may change certain configuration data mid-session, there are
360 different methods for delivering this configuration data to a
361 client, both in-band and out-of-band which is detailed below. SDP
362 delivery is used to set up an initial state for the client application.
363 The changes may be due to different codebooks as well as different
364 bitrates of the stream.
368 The delivery vectors in use are specified by an SDP attribute to indicate the method and the optional URI where the Vorbis <xref target="Packed Configuration">Packed Configuration</xref> Packets could be fetched. Different delivery methods MAY be advertised for the same session. The in-band Configuration delivery SHOULD be considered as baseline, out-of-band delivery methods that don't use RTP will not be described in this document. For non chained streams, the Configuration recommended delivery method is inline the <xref target="Packed Configuration">Packed Configuration</xref> in the SDP as explained in the <xref target="Mapping MIME Parameters into SDP"> IANA considerations</xref> section.
372 The 24 bit Ident field is used to map which Configuration will be used to decode a packet. When the Ident field changes, it indicates that a change in the stream has taken place. The client application MUST have in advance the correct configuration and if the client detects a change in the Ident value and does not have this information it MUST NOT decode the raw Vorbis data associated until it fetches the correct Configuration.
375 <section anchor="In-band Header Transmission" title="In-band Header Transmission">
378 The <xref target="Packed Configuration">Packed Configuration</xref> Payload is sent in-band with the packet type bits set to match the payload type. Clients MUST be capable of dealing with fragmentation and periodic re-transmission of the configuration headers.
381 <section anchor="Packed Configuration" title="Packed Configuration">
384 A Vorbis Packed Configuration is indicated with the payload type field set to 1. Of the three headers, defined in the <xref target="vorbis-spec-ref">Vorbis I specification</xref>, the identification and the setup will be packed together, the comment header is completely suppressed. Is up to the client provide a minimal size comment header to the decoder if required by the implementation.

429 This section, as stated above, does not cover all the possible out-of-band delivery methods since they rely on different protocols and are linked to specific applications. The following packet definition SHOULD be used in out-of-band delivery and MUST be used when Configuration is inlined in the SDP.
432 <section anchor="Packed Headers" title="Packed Headers">
435 As mentioned above the RECOMMENDED delivery vector for Vorbis configuration data is via a retrieval method that can be performed using a reliable transport protocol. As the RTP headers are not required for this method of delivery the structure of the configuration data is slightly different. The packed header starts with a 32 bit count field which details the number of packed headers that are contained in the bundle. Next is the Packed header payload for each chained Vorbis stream.

670 Each RTP packet contains either one Vorbis packet fragment, or an integer number of complete Vorbis packets (up to a maximum of 15 packets, since the number of packets is defined by a 4 bit value).
674 Any Vorbis data packet that is less than path MTU SHOULD be bundled in the RTP packet with as many Vorbis packets as will fit, up to a maximum of 15, except when such bundling would exceed an application's desired transmission latency. Path MTU is detailed in <xref target="rfc1063"></xref> and <xref target="rfc1981"></xref>.
678 A fragmented packet has a zero in the last four bits of the payload header. The first fragment will set the Fragment type to 1. Each fragment after the first will set the Fragment type to 2 in the payload header. The RTP packet containing the last fragment of the Vorbis packet will have the Fragment type set to 3. To maintain the correct sequence for fragmented packet reception the timestamp field of fragmented packets MUST be the same as the first packet sent, with the sequence number incremented as normal for the subsequent RTP packets. The length field shows the fragment length.

744 The Fragment type field is set to 2 and the number of packets field is set to 0. For large Vorbis fragments there can be several of these type of payload packets. The maximum packet size SHOULD be no greater than the path MTU, including all RTP and payload headers. The sequence number has been incremented by one but the timestamp field remains the same as the initial packet.

774 This is the last Vorbis fragment packet. The Fragment type is set to 3 and the packet count remains set to 0. As in the previous packets the timestamp remains set to the first packet in the sequence and the sequence number has been incremented.
778 <section anchor="Packet Loss" title="Packet Loss">
781 As there is no error correction within the Vorbis stream, packet loss will result in a loss of signal. Packet loss is more of an issue for fragmented Vorbis packets as the client will have to cope with the handling of the Fragment Type. In case of loss of fragments the client MUST discard all the remaining fragments and decode the incomplete packet. If we use the fragmented Vorbis packet example above and the first packet is lost the client MUST detect that the next packet has the packet count field set to 0 and the Fragment type 2 and MUST drop it. The next packet, which is the final fragmented packet, MUST be dropped in the same manner. If the missing packet is the last, the received two fragments will be kept and the incomplete vorbis packet decoded. Feedback reports on lost and dropped packets MUST be sent back via RTCP.
785 If a particular multicast session has a large number of participants care must be taken to prevent an RTCP feedback implosion, <xref target="rtcp-feedback"></xref>, in the event of packet loss from a large number of participants.
789 Loss of any of the Configuration fragment will result in the loss of the full Configuration packet with the result detailed in the <xref target="Loss of Configuration Headers">Loss of Configuration Headers</xref> section.

914 <section anchor="Mapping MIME Parameters into SDP" title="Mapping MIME Parameters into SDP">
917 The information carried in the MIME media type specification has a specific mapping to fields in the Session Description Protocol (SDP) <xref target="rfc2327"></xref>, which is commonly used to describe RTP sessions. When SDP is used to specify sessions the mapping are as follows:
920 <vspace blankLines="1" />
921 <list style="symbols">
923 <t>The MIME type ("audio") goes in SDP "m=" as the media name.</t>
924 <vspace blankLines="1" />
926 <t>The MIME subtype ("vorbis") goes in SDP "a=rtpmap" as the encoding name.</t>
927 <vspace blankLines="1" />
929 <t>The parameter "rate" also goes in "a=rtpmap" as clock rate.</t>
930 <vspace blankLines="1" />
932 <t>The parameter "channels" also goes in "a=rtpmap" as channel count.</t>
933 <vspace blankLines="1" />
935 <t>The mandated parameters "delivery-method" and "configuration" MUST be included in the SDP "a=fmpt" attribute.</t>
936 <vspace blankLines="1" />
938 <t>The optional parameter "configuration-uri", when present, MUST be included in the SDP "a=fmpt" attribute and MUST follow the delivery-method that applies.</t>
943 If the stream comprises chained Vorbis files and all of them are known in advance, the Configuration Packet for each file SHOULD be passed to the client using the configuration attribute.
947 The URI specified in the configuration-uri attribute MUST point to a location where all of the Configuration Packets needed for the life of the session reside.
951 The port value is specified by the server application bound to the address specified in the c attribute. The bitrate value and channels specified in the rtpmap attribute MUST match the Vorbis sample rate value. An example is found below.
954 <section anchor="SDP Example" title="SDP Example">
955 <t>The following example shows a basic SDP single stream. The first configuration packet is inlined in the sdp, other configurations could be fetched at any time from the first provided uri using or all the known configuration could be downloaded using the second uri. The inline <xref target="rfc3548">base16</xref> configuration string is omitted because of the lenght.</t>
958 <t>c=IN IP4 192.0.0.1</t>
959 <t>m=audio RTP/AVP 98</t>
960 <t>a=rtpmap:98 vorbis/44100/2</t>
961 <t>a=delivery:out_band/http</t>
962 <t>a=fmtp:98 delivery-method=in_band; configuration=base16string1; delivery-method=out_band/rtsp; configuration-uri=rtsp://path/to/the/resource; delivery-method=out_band/http; configuration-uri=http://another/path/to/resource/aggregate.bz2!sha1hash;</t>
968 Note that the payload format (encoding) names are commonly shown in upper case. MIME subtypes are commonly shown in lower case. These names are case-insensitive in both places. Similarly, parameter names are case-insensitive both in MIME types and in the default mapping to the SDP a=fmtp attribute. The exception regarding case sensitivity is the configuration-uri URI which MUST be regarded as being case sensitive.
973 <section anchor="Usage with the SDP Offer/Answer Mode" title="Usage with the SDP Offer/Answer Model">
976 The offer, as described in <xref target="rfc3264">An Offer/Answer Model Session Description Protocol</xref>, may contain a large number of delivery methods per single fmtp attribute, the answerer MUST remove every delivery-method and configuration-uri not supported. All the parameters MUST not be altered on answer otherwise.
983 <section anchor="Congestion Control" title="Congestion Control">
986 Vorbis clients SHOULD send regular receiver reports detailing congestion. A mechanism for dynamically downgrading the stream, known as bitrate peeling, will allow for a graceful backing off of the stream bitrate. This feature is not available at present so an alternative would be to redirect the client to a lower bitrate stream if one is available.
990 If a particular multicast session has a large number of participants care must be taken to prevent an RTCP feedback implosion, <xref target="rtcp-feedback"></xref>, in the event of congestion.
995 <section anchor="Examples" title="Examples">
998 The following examples are common usage patterns that MAY be applied in such situations, the main scope of this section is to explain better usage of the transmission vectors.
1001 <section anchor="Stream Radio" title="Stream Radio">
1003 <t>This is one of the most common situation: one single server streaming content in multicast, the clients may start a session at random time. The content itself could be a mix of live stream, as the wj's voice, and stored streams as the music she plays.</t>
1005 <t>In this situation we don't know in advance how many codebooks we will use. The clients can join anytime and users expect to start listening to the content in a short time.</t>
1007 <t>On join the client will receive the current Configuration necessary to decode the current stream inlined in the SDP so that the decoding will start immediately after.</t>
1009 <t>When the streamed content changes the new Configuration is sent in-band before the actual stream, and the Configuration that has to be sent inline in the SDP updated. Since the inline method is unreliable, an out of band fallback is provided.</t>
1011 <t>The client could choose to fetch the Configuration from the alternate source as soon it discovers a Configuration packet got lost inline or use <xref target="RFC3611">selective retransmission</xref>, if the server supports the feature.</t>
1013 <t>A serverside optimization would be to keep an hash list of the Configurations per session to avoid packing all of them and send the same Configuration with different Ident tags</t>
1015 <t>A clientside optimization would be to keep a tag list of the Configurations per session and don't process configuration packets already known.</t>
1020 <section anchor="Security Considerations" title="Security Considerations">
1022 RTP packets using this payload format are subject to the security considerations discussed in the RTP specification
1023 <xref target="rfc3550"></xref>. This implies that the confidentiality of the media stream is achieved by using
1024 encryption. Because the data compression used with this payload format is applied end-to-end, encryption may be performed on the
1025 compressed data. Where the size of a data block is set care MUST be taken to prevent buffer overflows in the client applications.
